Best Netflix Movies June 2022

Below, we’re going to dive into the top Netflix movies arriving on the streaming platform in June 2022. As usual, we’ve tried to break down the movies into must-see movies and skip-to-skip movies, although you won’t have the “skips” to heart, as that usually just means the movie in question might just be for a certain audience is interesting, not that the film necessarily is Poorly or anything!

interceptor

Watch! With Elsa Pataky and Luke Bracey, interceptor is an action-packed thriller with a powerful message of female empowerment. The film also takes place almost entirely in one location, which makes the action sequences and combat sense crackle with kinetic energy. Plus, it’s always nice to see a female-led action movie, and Pataky proves in this film that she’s just as a match for her Marvel superhero husband. Speaking of Hemsworth, he’s also an executive producer.

Hurry

Watch! I’ll be the first to admit that I’m not a huge fan of Adam Sandler comedy, but I appreciate him as a dramatic actor. Unpolished gems was excellent and Hurry is a sports drama that promises to stand out from Sandler.

In addition to the comedian, the film also stars Queen Latifah, Ben Foster and Robert Duvall, while LeBron James is producing alongside Sandler. Sandler stars as struggling basketball scout Stanley Sugarman, who tries to revive his career by recruiting a new overseas player for the NBA — without first consulting his team. NBA fans will also want to see several NBA stars appear in the film.

Skip! Die-hard fans of Jennifer Lopez should not Skip this behind-the-scenes documentary, which offers an intimate look at the courage and determination that makes J.Lo a superstar, but those who don’t listen to much music or know little about Lopez can probably skip this one.

Netflix teases that this film will serve as a “kickoff” for the latter half of J.Lo’s life as she discusses her evolution as a mother, artist, and Latina. And yes, Ben Affleck will be there.
